“Finally made this recipe and it’s a definite KEEPER! My husband and I LOVED it! I actually used 1 lb of ground venison with 2-1/2 links of Hot Italian Sausage. I always use the same amount of combination of these two meats to make my spaghetti sauce as well. But SERIOUSLY, this soup is AWESOME!!”

Noodles for Your Lasagna Soup

Do I have to use gluten-free lasagna noodles? Nope, but nobody will know the difference if you do!

Really any noodles will work, but I love buying (gluten-free) lasagna noodles and simply breaking them into pieces by hand! Roughly about about 1.5 inch pieces and toss them right into the pot. Remember pasta will expand when they cook, hence having extra broth on hand!

My favorite gluten-free brand for this is Jovial!

Lasagna Soup Tips!

  • When reheating for later, or if the noodles soak up too much broth, add additional chicken broth to the pot as desired. If so, taste and adjust spices as desired!
  • My favorite way to make this is to use ground beef and spicy Italian sausage.
  • Yes, any pasta will work but for lasagna style, break-up full lasagna noodles!
  • You can totally omit the sausage! Or use less spicy, for kids!

  • Cover and cook on low 8 hours or high 3 hours.
  • Take regular lasagna noodles and break them into pieces that are about about 1.5 inch pieces and cook pasta according to package directions.
  • Stir in cooked pasta and spinach. Cover and cook an additional 10 minutes!

Storing Lasagna Soup Recipe

Store your lasagna soup for 3-5 days in a container in the refrigerator.

While it’s best eaten the night of, but also great the next few days! Just add more broth and spices as needed when reheating as the noodles will soak up the broth.

    This is *THE* lasagna soup recipe. It’s perfect. All the lasagna flavors and a lot easier to make. It’s one of my regular fall/winter/spring soup recipes and the one I look forward to most after coming in from shoveling snow.

  2. I’ve made this recipe a couple of time now… the first time as written (except we used palmini noodles) and the second time I subbed ground beef and pork because it’s what I had on hand. Both times it’s been a hit with my family!

  3. Has anyone tried any gf no-boil lasagna noodles? You know the kind that goes straight from the box into the lasgna pan for ordinary lasagna? What happens if you break those up and add to the pot? I imagine they don’t take as long to cook? I’m not a fan of rice only noodles and would prefer a brand with something sturdier in it like corn and or quinoa. It looks like Barilla makes one.

    This is me and my bf’s favorite cook together meal. We use the Instant Pot and cook on manual for 4mins.(half the time it says on box for cooking directions.

  5. Can you please revisit and update the cooking time? You have 40 hours and 11 minutes listed which is wrong. Thanks!

    Finally made this recipe and it’s a definite KEEPER! My husband and I LOVED it! I actually used 1 lb of ground venison with 2-1/2 links of Hot Italian Sausage. I always use the same amount of combination of these two meats to make my spaghetti sauce as well. But SERIOUSLY, this soup is AWESOME!!

  7. 5 stars
    Genius! It was delicious and everyone (including a toddler) was happy and able to customize…I simmered a little longer so it was really thick. Thanks!

  8. 5 stars
    This is one of my all-time favorite soup recipes!! It is so delicious & hearty. As with any great recipe, we’ve made it multiple times.

  9. 5 stars
    Love this soup!! I have VERY picky eaters who do not like traditional lasagna, but liked this soup. My husband had seconds and could not quit saying how good it was.

  10. 5 stars
    This soup is SO easy to make! One pot took 30ish minutes to make – I doubled the meat/onions to make repeating this meal again soon so easy and it didn’t take but 5 more minutes to do it. Great flavor! Adding to our regular soup routine for sure.

  11. This recipe was super simple and just what I was craving! I love that it uses easy to find, wholesome ingredients and can be thrown together for an quick, nutritious, and filling dinner. My husband gives it two thumbs up, which is a coveted complement. Thanks Lexi!

  12. I have been making this soup in the instant pot and it works perfectly.

    I use the sauté function & sauté the onion/garlic/oil, then add the meat till browned.

    Then I add the sauces and spices, as well as gf lasagna noodles., basically everything but the spinach, lock and seal the lid and use pressure cook function for 7-8mins and slow release for 10mins. Once done I release the valve and lid and add the spinach while hot and bubbly. So delish! Thanks Lexi for another amazing recipe!!!!

    1. Thanks so much for sharing the IP version, Shannon! Mine is currently in the IP right now and I’m hoping it works! 😊 I’ve made the recipe lots on the stovetop. It’s one of my faves and always in my fall/winter meal rotation!

    Made it last night since “real” lasagna seemed too difficult when I was already getting hangry. This recipe was quick, easy, versatile, and yummy! I’m sure the leftovers will be even better.
